    This program, WingPlanAnal, analyzes wing planform geometry. It takes in data describing the leading and trailing edge locations and calculates local and integrated properties like sweep angle, chord length, and area. The output includes interpolated edge locations, sweep angles, and integral properties such as aspect ratio, taper ratio, and centroids. The user can also request values at specific spanwise stations.

    Program WingPlanAnal
    WingPlanAnal provides local and integrated planform properties given the description of the
    planform. The properties are defined in the Geometry for Aerodynamicists Appendix to the
    Configuration Aerodynamics notes. Currently the program assumes a symmetric planform.

    Program Operation:
    Running the program, you will be prompted for the name of an input data set. The maximum
    name length is 15 characters. The output is sent to the screen, but can be sent to a file by
    changing the value of IWRIT to something other than 6 in the main program. The sample data
    case on the disk is B2Plan.inp.
    INPUT
    Card Field Columns Variable Description
    1 1 1-60 Title Card
    2 1 1-10 FILM The number of points describing the leading edge
    3 Blank Card used to put headers on the leading edge data
    4 1 1- 10 YL(i) spanwise position of leading edge break point
    2 11-41 XL(i) streamwise position of leading edge break point
    Note: card 4 is repeated FILM times
    5 1 1-10 FITM The number of points describing the trailing edge
    6 Blank Card used to put headers on the trailing edge data
    7 1 1- 10 YT(i) spanwise position of trailing edge break point
    2 11-41 XT(i) streamwise position of trailing edge break point
    Note: 7 is repeated FITM times

    OUTPUT
    The input is echoed to allow for an easy check of the data, and to keep all information together.
    Then a table of leading edge and trailing edge locations and sweep angles is printed out. Then the
    integral characteristics are given. See the sample output below for details. If desired, the user can
    interactively ask for the leading and trailing edge locations and sweep at specific spanwise
    locations. A Sample input and output are available on the web.
